Description of the research topic:

The main purpose of the research is to decide whether and how non-invasive magnetic stimulation of cortical areas may result in increase or decresase of cognitive performance in humans and non-human primates. We will also test the effects of combination of novel cognitive enhancer pharmacological agents and the stimulation technique. In favourable condition, the combined therapies will open new avenues in the treatment of various neurological conditions, especially in the therapy of demementias. Technical background: computer-controlled non-verbal cognitive test batteries, high performance electroencephalography (EEG), repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), eye movement monitoring.
